I've been trying to explore nature a lot more lately, Ive been looking a lot at our landscapes but Ive found a different beauty in the native trees. The Ghost gums are an interesting piece of nature to look at, they appear almost other worldly. The bleach white bark, the smooth trunks and tall outstretched limbs, they almost seem to be alien compared to other trees. I found by taking a moment at sunset to simply examine them they take on a life of their own. They almost seem like a strange slow moving ancient being that has grown from the surrounding land.

This is my attempt to capture their natural yet somehow alien beauty at sunset.
